”Child of Destruction, the time has not yet come. What need is there to be so impatient?”
The High Priest's familiar and mysterious voice resounded through Wang Chong's mental domain.
Buzz!
Wang Chong's face twitched upon hearing 'Child of Destruction'. He had been heading for the giant bronze cauldron, but at this moment, with a heavy heart, he turned toward the High Priest.
”'Child of Destruction'? You're a member of the Celestial God Organization!”
Wang Chong's voice rumbled in the High Priest's mental domain. At present, the only people who knew the title 'Child of Destruction' and associated it with him were the members of the Celestial God Organization, the organization of the men in black.
The High Priest had mysterious origins, and not even those in the Arabian Empire knew of his true history. In his memories, Masil had regarded him as a god. Wang Chong had many speculations about who this man was, including that he belonged to the organization of the men in black.
However, the highest leader of the men in black Wang Chong had interacted with so far was True Lord Yellow Dragon, but True Lord Yellow Dragon and the High Priest resided distantly from each other, one in the east and one in the west. In addition, in terms of appearance, while True Lord Yellow Dragon was powerful, he had the face of an easterner. The Tianfu Divine Lord had also had a typical eastern face.
With regards to the Celestial God Organization, it only existed in the records of the Book of Paimon. In the west, this organization had vanished without a trace and no longer seemed to exist. Thus, after some thought, Wang Chong had rejected the possibility.
But to Wang Chong's surprise, the reality turned out to be completely different.
”Heh! Yes, but also no.”
The High Priest's thoughts came out of the void, the void faint and drifting.
”Although I know that you are the Child of Destruction, that does not mean that I am a member of the Celestial God Organization, nor does it mean that only members of the Celestial God Organization know your identity!”
Wang Chong couldn't help but deeply frown at these words.
The High Priest spoke in a mysterious tone that made it impossible to extract any useful information from his words. There was just too little known about him. The fact that the High Priest possessed such powerful Psychic Energy but did not excel in martial arts made him completely different from any individual Wang Chong had encountered in the Celestial God Organization.
”Just who are you?” Wang Chong sternly said. The High Priest was becoming more and more shrouded in fog. If he was not a member of the Celestial God Organization, who was he? Was there a power in the west that was just as powerful as the Celestial God Organization but not a part of it?
But from the Book of Paimon, it appeared that the Celestial God Organization was an extremely forceful faction. Would one permit another to snore right next to their bed? Would the Celestial God Organization permit an organization to exist in the western world outside of its control?
After all, the High Priest was strong enough to influence secular authorities!
Wang Chong found this person far too mysterious!
”Heh!”
The High Priest softly chuckled.
”I will not answer you. Whatever you're planning, go back. With me here, you cannot succeed. Or perhaps you wish to start the battle early? A major battle will take place soon, but if you want to have the decisive battle now, I will not refuse!”
Wang Chong deeply frowned. It was practically impossible to tell if the High Priest was telling the truth or speaking lies. He claimed to not mind a match, but that was not necessarily his true intention.
While Wang Chong also hoped to force out his true strength and explore the depths of his power, he quickly ruled the idea out. The High Priest might have been trying to intentionally provoke him.
Moreover, he could fight with the High Priest at any other time. There was no need to rush it. As the commander of the army, he had the role of presiding over the center and obtaining victory in tomorrow's battle.
But retreating was also not Wang Chong's style!
”Since that's the case, I'll give you what you want!”
There was a loud laugh, and before the High Priest could react, Wang Chong's Psychic Energy gathered into a massive sun, radiating immense heat as it hurtled at the High Priest's Psychic Energy.
Supreme Art, Blazing Sun!
Wang Chong used the technique he had once used against Masil. Psychic Energy was formless energy that belonged to the dark and gloomy side, but Wang Chong's Blazing Sun was bold and upright, completely different from the energy of other Psychic Energy practitioners, and almost all of them would have to fear this technique.
It was why Masil had been so afraid of Wang Chong back then.
Boom!
